Mprisondthotz Thotz From Thotz Mprisond Coronavirus and Prisoner's Relationship with Death by Donald "C-Note" Hooker As a political junkie, Friday's edition of the PBS NewsHour, is always must watch TV for me. On Friday, April 24th, 2020, reporter William Brangham was doing a human interest story on COVID-19. Somehow, he ran across a Facebook post from a New York City, Mount Sinai, ICU nurse, KP Mendoza.

Submission Tuesday 6-9-2020 Coronavirus while incarcerated has been mentally difficult because I have nothing really to do but think and worry about when this will be over so the program can go back to the way it was. Most of the inmates I've talked to, feel that the Administration will trick us an keep things like they are now or only give us (inmates) certain privileges back. To me, I'm only getting stronger by being forced to deal head-on with my mental thoughts that would usuall...

Alice Bingner 3744 Dexter Road Ann Arbor, MI 48103 Category: Personal Essay Word Count: 2,246 Corrections: an Exercise in Futility Currently, in the United States, it costs upwards of $50,000,000,000 plus a year to incarcerate more than 2,000,000 men, women and children. And the expense by no means stops there. While 10 percent of prisoners are menaces from whom the public needs protection, the rest would be better served - and so would society - if there were alternative sentencing for non-v...

‘Counting Pictures'Segment What follows is a segment from my book ‘Counting Pictures‘. It is currently (4/2017) unpublished. It's about my personal experience being accused, indicted and convicted as a 'sex offender’, a term that is loaded down with negative connotations in our society. In many cases the connotations and inferences have little or nothing to do with the offense itself or with the laws now being employed to prosecute ‘offenders’. There is in the Federal Legal Sys...

"Dauntless Power" When you're in a position of power or notoriety or you air any sort of boundless confidence, you gain enemies that have never met your person, only your legend or story. Power, no matter the walk of life, in some form big or small, is the sweetest tool that anyone can envy or dream of attaining. The power upon you was made because of the legend and lessons you left. But it will always be paralleled by some unsubstantiated absurd or paradoxical story conjured u...
